§ The result
Classet leads Keka on all 7 criteria.
Classet finishes 18 points clear of Keka under rubric v1.0 — 55 against 37 — across the Screening and ATS-integrated cohorts. Of the 7 criteria Keka wins none, and the narrowest lead Classet holds is on FRIA Support, Classet 33 to Keka 30. One criterion, Bias Audit Transparency, is both the widest raw gap (Classet 76, Keka 20) and the heaviest weighted swing, and at 18% weight it makes up 56% of the weighted advantage Classet holds across the 7 criteria it leads.

Weighted delta is the raw difference times the criterion weight, so the 7 figures above sum to +18.1 — the difference between the two totals before either is rounded. Shares are of 18.1 points of movement counted without direction. The table below rounds each side to a whole number first, so its Δ raw total reads +18 beside that +18.1.

§ Evidence
Cited sources and documented absences, criterion by criterion.
An absence is a finding, not a blank: the reviewer looked for a named artefact and recorded that it is not located. Where a source sits is a fact about hosting only.
